Topband: problems with RFID-key-cards / transponder door locks in Hotels ?

[Carsten Dauer]

Hi Topbanders

 

I own a hotel and we are going to buy 45 new doors with RFID-Cards/
transponder locks.  ( you know those cards, being held near the door lock
terminal to open. 

Not those magnetic ones you slide through)

 

I am running QRO and the antennas are within 20m-30m from the building. Can
I run into big trouble with this type of locks ? 

 

The ones offered to me operate at 13,56 MHz, which is stated to be a
worldwide standard.

I think they work with the magnetic field?  Inductive coupling.

Anyone living near a hotel and having trouble with either QRM from the door
locks or blocking the door lock during contests / transmitting ?

Those locks are also used in offices, so they are used quite often.

 

Thanks for any help.
